The restaurant is not big, and there is no decoration to speak of. It is just a small canteen, but the food here is really expensive.
A plate of fried shredded potatoes costs 50 yuan, and braised beef costs 220 yuan. These prices are a money grab.
Xu Qian looked at the menu and his hands were shaking a little. He knew it was expensive, but he didn't expect it to be so expensive.
"Well, if you think it's expensive, let's go get some snacks. I think the stuff in your bag is pretty good." Fatty never thought he would come here to eat and spend this money, so he quit the game and went to eat.
What's wrong? The reason why he didn't bring food was because he had planned to take advantage of these newcomers. Newcomers usually bring a lot of food, and he always has a way to get some.
"Forget it, just eat." Xu Qian felt confident as he thought about the 200,000 tuition refund he was about to receive.
When it came time to order, both the waiter and the fat man had their eyes widened.
Xu Qian ordered 6 dishes and spent nearly a thousand yuan. Even if he came to eat, no one else would eat more, so it was just to satisfy his craving. But in such an expensive place, Xu Qian and the others ordered 6 dishes.
It was a little too much, enough for four or five people to eat. But how could anyone know that Xu Qian was worried about the money and had to eat a little less. He calculated that the fat man should eat two dishes, so he would also eat less.
Eating 4 dishes is really a bit too little.
If the food is not enough, just eat more. But no, first of all, a bowl of rice costs 15 yuan, and he does not feel full just by eating more, but needs enough energy. 3 pounds of rice is not worth half a pound of beef.
"Why is it so expensive? Is it because of exclusive business?"
"Yes, not entirely." The fat man was in a good mood now. Although he was still waiting for the food to be served, it was his first time to eat in this restaurant, and he was very friendly to Xu Qian. "To be exclusive, is it possible that the Tang Empire
No restaurant? Everyone can come and go freely, just go out to eat. I have to say no.
Is there currency from the Tang Empire? It’s easy to handle. There is a currency exchange service in the stronghold, so you can just exchange some money. It’s expensive here, mainly because everyone thinks that they won’t go out unless they can. It’s safe here and there are shelters from the wind and rain.
Stronghold protection, if it weren't for this, everyone would just go out and stay.
It would be nice to have a hotel, there is no need to crowd here. Of course, experts are not included in this. In addition, there is also the issue of cost. Let’s not talk about the rent, let’s talk about the people. The staff here all come in as players.
Those who work to make money, such as the girl at the front desk, such as the waiters and waitresses here
Chefs are all hired by the stronghold boss from the real world with high salaries. One person can only work 12 days a month. The rest of the time cannot be done full-time in the real world, and there are still certain risks in coming here.
Once this happens, the salary will have to be high and the cost will also be high.”
Xu Qian nodded to express his understanding. "Where are the raw materials? It seems that the prices here are relatively low." Xu Qian pointed to the dishes that had just been served.
The fat man took a bite of the food and said, "I don't know much about this. I've also shopped in the vegetable market here. But these ingredients are from the Tang Empire. If they were shipped here from the real world, the price would be higher than now.
If there are too many, how much can one person bring? Don’t think that there are not many people ordering and spending here.
, there is a high-end restaurant upstairs, but it is not as good as the one above. The first floor is a place where people with no money stay. Those who can afford to live upstairs are more particular about eating. I heard that they eat every meal in the restaurant.
, the price is much more expensive than here. If we rely on employees to bring ingredients, it is impossible to meet the demand. "
"But the suitcases and police uniforms we bought just now seem to be quite cheap." Xu Qian himself didn't know how much these things cost. He only knew that the prices were very cheap after listening to other people's discussions.
"Those are different. In the base, goods or services can be divided into two types, necessary and non-essential. Like the most basic membership fee, this is necessary. You can have a place to stay within a month with 500 yuan.
It’s not expensive, isn’t it? And the props we bought are all necessary to complete the mission and are necessities, so they are cheap. Stronghold
The goods provided for basic protection are all charged at cost price. How can we say that only people have business? First of all, the minimum needs of grassroots players must be guaranteed. As for non-necessities, such as our meal, it means a bit of luxury, so it is relatively
Expensive. And those star-rated rooms also include value that reflects status, which is similar to luxury goods.”
"Our mission is to rescue slaves. Are these slaves from the real world?"
The fat man nodded, "Actually, this is not a secret. Others don't know it, but we old players can make a rough guess after exchanging information. Since we can come to the Datang Empire, people from the Datang Empire can also
If there is a way to go to our world, they will capture people and sell them as slaves, and we will rescue them."
Xu Qian pondered for a moment and lowered his eyes slightly: "In other words, this is also a real world. The God War game actually sends players into another real world?"
The fat man put a piece of beef into his mouth, and then said slowly: "Isn't it obvious? You, a living person, have already eaten here, how can it be in the real world? The so-called game is just a game.
In the name of letting more people enter the different world and do something for the game officials that they want everyone to do. However, these words are only talked about in the God War circle, and cannot be discussed with people who have not entered the game.
Said."
"Why can't you tell me?"
"The official won't let it. Haven't you noticed that the specific details of the game are not described on the Internet? You should also be able to think of the official background of the game. I think the country has not yet considered how to make the truth public. I think this is also
It should be, if this matter is to be announced like this, no one can predict what the world will become. Even if it is to be made public, it must be done step by step, otherwise the world will really be in chaos."
"But how can we control it? There are so many gamers."
"It's impossible for the wind to leak out at all, but the official has never thought that no news will be leaked out. You think about it, while they are trying their best to control it, some gossip is slowly leaking out in society. In fact, this is
This is the best state, and the public always needs to accept it, just take your time."
Xu Qian thought of that radio program. Whether it was the radio station, the host, or the interviewees Ren Qi and Jiang Qiu, they all felt like they were arranged to speak out. Maybe this feeling was not obvious before, but at this moment Xu Qian,
Already understood.
Is there something behind all this related to his origin? This is a mystery that Xu Qian must solve. The original sentence asked him to complete his mission, and said that when he becomes stronger, he can remember everything.
Unless he can really ignore everything, he can only strengthen himself. Until now, he still doesn't know what mission he shoulders.
